Hi everyone!
New Android 7 Developer RUU is out. I remember that there were several problems with the last Android 6 security updates in September and October. So it wasn't possible to root with the latest SuperSU.zip
Instead you had to use an older version and update to the latest version with Play Store later.
Before I flash the Android 7 RUU, I would like to know if anyone already has experience with rooting latest Stock ROM?
Any problems which occurred? And if the root process was successful, which SuperSU Version have you used? Thanks in advance!

I've used this to root stock Nougat ROM and it worked fine https://download.chainfire.eu/1014/SuperSU/SR5-SuperSU-v2.78-SR5-20161130091551.zip
Anyway make a backup.. just in case it doesn't work
EDIT: It will reboot the phone at least 2 times before booting into system

Do we need to modify system in twrp? before installing this?

No there's no need, at least I didn't change anything and it worked well
I just wanted to add this as a note as I did not see anyone else having these issues in nougat (7.0). Do not install SuperSU 2.78-201609011115. If you do your mobile data option in the notification bar will be grayed out. Your cell signal will have a slash through it and cell signal will no longer work. I do not know if other versions of SuperSU will also cause this symptom.
If this happens to you restore from a backup in recovery or if need be run the RUU again.
Mat08.cc's linked version of SuperSU does work!!!! Thanks!
My m9 doesn't want to upgrade. After it download the Nougat ,it says that I'm running modified system. My phone is att but converted to developer edition. The way I was updating my phone each time so far was with RUU file and I didn't gave any issues until now. Please help . Thanks in advance.

Excuse me, I did not understand.. The phone has received the upgrade but can not install it?
Yes, that is correct. The issue was that my CID was 11111111. Changed it to BS_US001, downloaded, installed successfully. Now I just ran in another issue. Tried to root it so I did: twrp 3.0.2, then installed supersu-v2.78, device booted, cinfirmed rooted but doesn't recognize that there is a sim card inside. Ideas? Thank you!!!

Definitely an incorrect SuperSU apk. Use the one in OP of http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/general/nougat-coming-t3513698
Okay. Will try and get back to you. Thanks
P. S. Am I the only ine who is experiencing Messages failing and sending reports to HTC? Ever since I switched to Nougat, every time when I receive/send a text the app fails and when I try to access notifications it fails automatically as well. Ideas? Thank you

Reporting back:
After installing the SuperSU that you gave, everything works normally. Thank you very much.
There is an update which my phone didn't want to install. It said that the update is for himaulatt and my phone is himaul. Is it because phone is rooted and with twrp recovery? When I install the update manually via RUU from laptop, works fine. It just pisses me off cause I have tk start from scratch with my phone but update is successful. Had this issue for a while now amd was trying to figure it out. I really don't want to keep wiping the phone every single time there is an update. Thank you in advance.
Best Regards

Hi, I am new to all this updating etc, so i have a few humble questions, and hope some of you more familiar with the process could guide in the right direction.
My device is stock with 4.1.2 firmware XXBMC8/XXBMD1
1: My N5100 is India Version so would the German Update / release that is available on sammobile online work on mine.
2: What precautions etc do i have to take on my device if any. When I bought my Note 8 there was an OTA update which ran fine
and gave no issues or data loss.
3. Do I Have to take backups of my apps and have to re-install them ?
4. Any other tips / precautions i am missing.
sorry if am sounding bit paranoid.
Thanks!

1. Yes the German version should work fine for you.
2. I just did a Titanium backup of my apps "in case" there was a wipe before I flashed the update. I have a South African 32GB N5100 the update worked perfectly. However you may not receive future OTA updates due to the ROM being for a different region.
3. Always a good idea.
4. The first time is always the worst, once you see how it is done you may not be able to stop though.

Thanks a lot,
Bit the bullet and went with the update.
Everything went smooth.
only Minor issue I see is that, Kies does not recognize the firmware.
All apps and data seem to be as they were , though I took app backups to pc via helium as well as synced kies prior update in case anything went awry.
Now to find out what's new addition to 4.2.2 other than few things pretty obvious
Thanks again.

What version of firmware do you have, and which version of TWRP did you flash? Did you read the TWRP thread and the one I linked you? If on Nougat you need the latest unofficial version of twrp.
Twrp thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-t3358139
Not sure which YouTube vid you followed by I would guess it's probably a bit outdated by now.

i flashed 3.0.3-0 twrp and i think maybe the guide was outdated since i'm on nougat now, anyway to avoid any other issue i'm gonna flash a stock sprint model RUU, but i'm a newbie so i want to ask you should i lock the boatloader before or after i flash the RUU ?
And thank you for helping
MS lost and users too !!!
It happened to me yesterday (March 4th,2016) and I did not succeed with anything I tried.
I'm traveling and only return on Monday.
My desktop is with windows-10 educational.
These unannounced automatic updates are horrible, from December to March there have already been 5 major updates, the 24/12 had been the worst of them.
If I have to re-install it I will go back to Windows 98 !!!
MS has totally lost its way, so I do not recommend using Windows-10 that only has spys and telemetry (120 processes running, it's impossible)!
I unlocked and rooted 2 HTC Sprint 10 phones and installed Viper rom on them. I later discovered both home button and finger print are not working.
If you check settings, I can't even find finger print anywhere.
I don't know if anyone has experienced this before.
My guess is that the phones are running the "old" marshmallow firmware while a new Android Nougat rom is installed.

Does Viper no longer ask you which firmware you're on during install? If it still does, reinstall and choose marshmallow.
Else you could update your firmware manually, but safest/simplest route is backing up your phone and running the latest ruu, and then reinstall twrp and Viper.

Thanks guys.
Just in case anyone comes across this thread as a search result, the exact same symptom can be caused by dropping your HTC 10 the wrong way. My wife found that out several months ago. Only having it exchanged would fix it.
I watched a few videos on YouTube on how to upgrade the Android O/S but none of them mentioned that it needs to unlock the bootloader 1st.
So before I found out that I need to unlock it I tried installing ROM before I knew that.
The phone came with Android Kitkat 4.4.2 and there is an official Lollipop for it that I want to install.
The device is rooted with Kingroot.
I tried the installations two times and the phone still works but I can no longer boot into recovery mode or fastboot mode. It just hangs and then I need to remove the battery to get it to work again.
I just want to restore it back to what it was before and then I will work on unlocking the bootloader.
I prefer to use tools that are free of cost.
Issue has been resolved.
I flashed the device with a pac file using SPD upgrade tool and now all is back to default.

Hi. I recently messed up my phone (Y560-U02)! Please help me.
Can you please tell me where I can find the "pac file" and "SPD upgrade tool"?

You meant un-official, right?
Sorry for the delay. I check the linked email once per month.
Do you still need help on this?
I thought that it was official Lollipop. But it does not exist for this phone.
Yes I can help you get it to what ever you need but it is not easy if you want to do more than just resorted it back to default.
I will tell you more if you still need it.
Is anyone else getting this or does anyone know of a solution to this? It basically tries to download and fails immediately on WiFi and cellular. I wish I could get the update from OP but of course it's still not listed.

So in theory, if I unroot then run OnePlus updater I should be able to get the update. Then reboot after. Correct?
Maybe I did something wrong, but I tried unrooting for the last OTA and still received the same error. I had to wait until the full version was on the OnePlus site, I think OnePlus updater grabs the zip from there too. It also took a month longer for the full zip to hit the OnePlus site.
Flash the stock boot.img and then try again. It should update. Just make sure you use the correct boot.img for the version your currently on
I have global unlocked varient and when I first received it I just flashed BA/EU on both slots(local upgrade twice) and I've been able to get all full zip updates(via system updates and/or O2 updater app) staying rooted the whole time. I'm in US on tmo, I'm wondering what could have been so beneficial some ppl want to stay on AA/glo builds.?
Initially I was getting that error. Then I ran the uninstall in Magisk and chose to RESTORE IMAGES. I then just hit retry on the OTA from the phone settings (NOT Oxygen Updater) and the update installed. Initially this did not for 11.2.3.3 as it would still give the error after unrooting by uninstalling Magisk, then it worked for 11.2.4.4 and 11.2.5.5. So YMMV. You can look here for my update process as I was having an issue post-OTA:
No cell service after update to 11.2.4.4AA while keeping root
I'll try to keep this short. Global OP9 Pro on 11.2.2.2AA, bootloader unlocked, rooted w/Magisk. Been trying to find the best way to update. Decided on trying this: 1. Un-rooting by going in to Magisk and doing UNINSTALL->RESTORE IMAGES 2...

Not knowing that the AA variant would have dog**** updates from the start, and already having restored my old phone's data and not wanting to go through setup and restore again.
Edit: The goal is also to eventually get on crDroid anyway so it's whatever. I'm not resetting until there's an official crDroid build out.
